Here I am: Before Birth, 2 Minutes After Birth, 1 Day After Birth. Click here to listen to Daddy’s surprise when he discovered I wasn’t the boy he was expecting! |
Aunt Lara came to visit me in the hospital, Grandma Juanita decorated our mailbox at home so all the neighbors would know I was a girl, and as soon as we got home, Daddy taught me the proper way to drool. |
My first Christmas (1997) started out in Georgia, then we flew to Oklahoma where I got to meet my daddy’s side of the family. |
On my first Christmas, I wore the same outfit that my daddy wore on his first Christmas! On my first birthday we visited grandma and grandpa in Alva, and my cousins (from Norman) in Tulsa. |
In Orlando, I took time out of my busy schedule to pose for this picture with Mrs. America 1998 |
Posing with Daddy on Bourbon Street in New Orleans . |
When I was just learning to talk, Daddy coaxed me to say “Dish!” on camera. He mailed the tape, and DISH Network used it in a commercial! |
Playing the piano is such hard work that I had to take a nap afterwards! |
